‘Gold Rush': Parker Is ‘Super Uneasy’ About Moving Gigantic Wash Plant (Exclusive Video)
It’s back to the glory hole for the “Gold Rush” gang. But first, Parker Schnabel and the boys need to move his incredibly huge and expensive new wash plant.
How huge, you ask? It’s 90,000 pounds and 70 feet long. How pricey? Just $600,000. Rick’s got this … right?
Well, it certainly doesn’t help that this sucker needs to hang over a cliff to be operational. Maybe that explains why Parker says he’s feeling “incredibly nervous … super uneasy” in the above clip, which is exclusive to TheWrap.
